This has been an assignment in years previous. It's intent is for you to be honest and introspective about what an average day at ISA looks like, feels like, etc.
Each of you should brainstorm and scribe what an average day entails for you
You can first break this down as a schedule for example
8:45am 1st Period Global Leadership
9:37am 2nd Period Government
